Construction of Sobolev spaces of fractional order with sub-riemannian vector fields

Sami Mustapha, François Vigneron (2007)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Given a smooth family of vector fields satisfying Chow-Hörmander’s condition of step 2 and a regularity assumption, we prove that the Sobolev spaces of fractional order constructed by the standard functional analysis can actually be “computed” with a simple formula involving the sub-riemannian distance.Our approach relies on a microlocal analysis of translation operators in an anisotropic context. It also involves classical estimates of the heat-kernel associated to the sub-elliptic Laplacian.

Denting point in the space of operator-valued continuous maps.

Ryszard Grzaslewicz, Samir B. Hadid (1996)

Revista Matemática de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid

In a former paper we describe the geometric properties of the space of continuous functions with values in the space of operators acting on a Hilbert space. In particular we show that dent B(L(H)) = ext B(L(H)) if dim H < 8 and card K < 8 and dent B(L(H)) = 0 if dim H < 8 or card K = 8, and x-ext C(K,L(H)) = ext C(K,L(H)).

Diameter-preserving maps on various classes of function spaces

Bruce A. Barnes, Ashoke K. Roy (2002)

Studia Mathematica

Under some mild assumptions, non-linear diameter-preserving bijections between (vector-valued) function spaces are characterized with the help of a well-known theorem of Ulam and Mazur. A necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a diameter-preserving bijection between function spaces in the complex scalar case is derived, and a complete description of such maps is given in several important cases.

Dieudonné operators on the space of Bochner integrable functions

Marian Nowak (2011)

Banach Center Publications

A bounded linear operator between Banach spaces is called a Dieudonné operator ( = weakly completely continuous operator) if it maps weakly Cauchy sequences to weakly convergent sequences. Let (Ω,Σ,μ) be a finite measure space, and let X and Y be Banach spaces. We study Dieudonné operators T: L¹(X) → Y. Let i : L ( X ) L ¹ ( X ) stand for the canonical injection. We show that if X is almost reflexive and T: L¹(X) → Y is a Dieudonné operator, then T i : L ( X ) Y is a weakly compact operator. Moreover, we obtain that if T: L¹(X)...

Dimension Distortion by Sobolev Mappings in Foliated Metric Spaces

Zoltán M. Balogh, Jeremy T. Tyson, Kevin Wildrick (2013)

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces

We quantify the extent to which a supercritical Sobolev mapping can increase the dimension of subsets of its domain, in the setting of metric measure spaces supporting a Poincaré inequality. We show that the set of mappings that distort the dimensions of sets by the maximum possible amount is a prevalent subset of the relevant function space. For foliations of a metric space X defined by a David–Semmes regular mapping Π : X → W, we quantitatively estimate, in terms of Hausdorff dimension in W, the...
